Seahawks Punch Play-off Spot with Thrilling Extra Time Triumph over Los Angeles Rams.

Seattle engineered a remarkable fightback to defeat the Los Angeles Rams in extra time, securing their place in the NFL play-offs.

Rallying from a sixteen-point hole in the fourth quarter, the Seattle squad emerged victorious by a single point at home, notching their fifth consecutive win.

While the Los Angeles had already secured a post-season berth earlier on Sunday, the Seattle team secured their place to the postseason after a two-year absence.

Game Recap

Quarterback Darnold had two interceptions but regrouped to deliver two touchdown passes, including the second score to wideout Jaxon Smith-Njigba in the extra period.

The visitors held a 13-7 advantage at half-time before Kenneth Walker III broke free for a 55-yard touchdown run for Seattle.

Los Angeles cornerback Josh Wallace then took back Darnold's initial interception for a big return, leading to a short score by Corum on the ensuing snap.

In the final stanza, a touchdown from Stafford to Nacua pushed the Rams' lead to sixteen points, but Shaheed ignited the comeback with a 58-yard punt return.

Darnold then found Barner in the end zone, and a successful conversion forced the contest into overtime.

Although Nacua scored for his another TD in overtime, Smith-Njigba responded in kind to setup the game-winning conversion.
